It's got to be the most difficult area of work for what you earn. The one requirement they fail to mention - especially wrt Aunt Martha is FIRST off,
...
you MUST work in a restaurant before you even consider a career in it. It almost doesnt matter what you do....you just have to get a grasp of all that goes into all that preparation, service, healthy premises, and above all...the books. Bet Aunt Martha never worked in a restaurant...from the looks of things, she just had too much money jangling around in her purse and not enough friends and relatives to cook stuff for.
50 - 70 percent of restaurants that are free standing close in about 2 years these days (due to looser lending practices it takes a little longer to go under); but just as important, only about half of those that survive provide an income commensurate with the headaches of running even a small operation. Most people are better off being a plumber.
And, this movie does a pretty good job of driving that point home.

Once again, for all who don't know, I'll always jump through hoops to see anything related to food, as they provide probably the more hilarious films here.
...
This 'Your Life's Work' film doesnt dissapoint as it shows all the hardships of running a restaraunt!
We begin amazingly, by showing a woman with the largest bouffant possible chowing down. The narrator explains to us that everyone likes to eat, but everyone doesn't like the bother of preparing it! So that's why we have restaraunts. A GREAT profile of what kind of restaraunts were availible in the 1950's are then shown, with great names for them as well. The main focus on this bis being a restaraunt manager. Not everyone can be one, as we focus on one Aunt Martha, who may make the best pie, pudding and muffins. But when she opens up her own restaraunt, it fails because she didn't have the financial know-how and besides, it was on a side street where noone went down, "which didn't occur to Aunt Martha". (LOL). This film sums up by briefly going over education (no physics this time kiddies) and then ending.
Somewhat less-patronizing narration this time out, and more focus on women. I think there's a connection. Reccomended!
